            Too little, too late. Same price as Macbook Pro, similar performance to M3/M3 Pro (3 yeras ago it was supposed to be much, much better than competitors, but it is not) and immature platform/software. Why bother? If you don't want Intel/AMD with Windows then there is nothing better than MacOs. And at leat Intel/AMD can be bought at 1/3 price...

              What a crap of naming Chip Manufacturers are doing now.
              Qualcomm,Mediatek,Intel,AMD all doing this crap lately.
              Maybe confusing customers is their main goal by selling the inferior chip that sound very similar to a good chip.

                          ARM X1 is a really fast processor just because old stuff went out of the window (old 32bit) the first pure 64bit isa was a great Leap forward , now trying to save the old x86 and windows is a huge mistake Windows can't even handle modern cpus the file system is really ancient the good thing is that microsoft Azure os need to be worked on to make sure to complete with the best Linux distros like tumbelweed that have everything

                              I hope it will work with Linux too

                                There are quite a lot of Macbooks with ARM SoCs while Windows almost doesn't exist yet.

                                    Boo!!

                                    Microsoft will find a way to limit these chips and make the surface laptops for arm slow as a turtle as always.

                                      Snapdragon X series are basically like the Apple Silicon of Windows.
